Forever Together

Chapter 1

"Nii-chan?" Kotarou questioned.

"I'll be back in a few minutes, stay here and play with Taka-kun for the meantime." I tell Kotarou while Hayato and I left the room.

While walking to the new practice spot for the baseball team. I could feel a blood rush, go up to my face. Huh? I wondered. I wrapped my arms around my chest while looking down at the hallway floor trying not to alarm Hayato about the situation. There was a gush of silence between us, it wasn't out of the normal since Hayato wasn't really the type to strike a conversation up out of no where.

"Hey are you ok?" Hayato asked. I never noticed that his voice was so deep and husky, almost inchanting.

"Uh Ryuu?" Hayato repeated himself.

I quickly snap out of my thoughts. "Ha sorry, zoned out for a minute there, yeah, I'm alright." I reassured him. I quickly changed into my outdoor shoes since Hayato already had his on.

Hayato guided me towards a hill where I could see the rest of the team were practicing on.

"We're here." Hayato said emotionless. I noticed the team members batting off baseballs from the top of the hill to see how far they would go, for my guessing. 

"I'll see you in a few." I said before taking off to the nearest restroom that was out of Hayato's eyesight.

Once I found the nearest boy restroom I locked the door behind me. I could hear myself gasping for air while leaning onto the bathroom sink, and facing myself in the mirror. I could tell that my face was 10 different shades of red. My heart was beating fast. Why am I feeling like this? I thought to myself. I turned on the faucet and splashed some cold water onto my face, to make myself feel better.

Why did I feel like this when I was alone with Hayato for a few minutes? It didn't make sense to me because I felt perfectly fine walking with our younger brothers to the daycare room with him.

How strange.

I thought to myself while leaving the restroom acting as if nothing happened. I headed back inside the school entrance putting my indoor shoes on once again and headed to the daycare room.

Once I got there I noticed Yoshihito-san napping on the floor.

Ugh, this bitch.

I thought to myself, deciding whether or not to wake him up. Instead, I decided to tackle the stained carpet myself, feeling empathetic for Yoshihito-san, not knowing how long he'd been working for. After an hour, I decided to replace the carpet with a new one knowing that it would be impossible to get the stain out. I noticed that Yoshihito-san missed some places to clean up after in the room, so I took care of it for him instead.

I don't know how long I've been cleaning for, but once I decided to look out of the window I notice the sky change from a sunny morning to a somewhat chilly afternoon.

"Yoshihito-san, wake up" I said attempting to wake him up from his nap.

"Mmm." Yoshihito-san tried to agrue back with.

"He said to wake the fuck up, you old hag." Hayato said entering the daycare room.

I must have been zoned out since I didn't hear him open or even close the door behind him.

"Fine." Yoshihito-san said not wanting to argue with Hayato.

"Ahh, I see that you changed the carpet and cleaned up the areas I was planning to clean once you got back." Yoshihito-san said.

"Why didn't you wake me up? I would've helped you and you could've been at home relaxing by now." Yoshihito-san added on.

"Ha it's fine." I chuckled.
